What type of society characterizes South American societies?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on my research South America’s political geography can be defined by a desire to reduce foreign influence. The nationalization and privatization of industry, as well as the influence of indigenous groups, are the primary political issues affecting South America.

Nationalization is a type of ownership where the state controls an industry, as opposed to private companies. Some South American nations have nationalized industries, such as electricity or oil production, in order to encourage economic development.

Chile nationalized its copper mines in 1971, for instance. Before nationalization, Chilean copper mines were controlled by large foreign companies. Today, CODELCO, the National Copper Corporation of Chile, is the largest copper company in the world, with more than $12.1 billion worth of sales in 2009.

@sudavee I think @lgruben is interested in knowing whether the S. American societies are simple or modern i.e. industrialized societies. .
